Amity has been breeding
miniature poodles and showing in both conformation & obedience since 1969. Although
we do occasionally have black or cream most of our babies are brown, cafe,
blue, silver, and silver beige. Companion puppies are available on a
spay/neuter contract with a Lifetime health and temperament guarantee. All
parents are tested and must pass - most are Champions. All companion
miniatures are available at 9 weeks of age after 2 shots, well baby exam,
several fecal exams, and are micro-chipped. Each leaves us with their own crate. Our "kids" are
home raised. Shipping
is available.

Please contact us for adult Champions looking for homes as several breeder friends have both toys
and minis available.

FOR SALE, Can Ch Amity’s Harvard Bound is for sale to an owner that likes a challenge. Harvey is clean & always comes but is a goofy 16” dude that wants to kiss & play. A real people pleaser. He is very high drive. DOB 11-7-14.

The Three True Varieties of Poodles

There are three varieties of Poodles: Toy, Miniature and
Standard. Terms such as "Royal Standard." "Tea Cup Toy,"
or "Tiny Toy Poodle" are marketing gimmicks, used to promote the
sale of animals that are dramatically over or under the norm in
size.

At Amity, we breed Toy Poodles: the Toy is the smallest variety
and should be no larger than 10" high at the shoulder.
This size is particularly well-suited to apartment life or as a
traveling companion for retired people.

Amity also breeds Miniature Poodles: the Miniature is a medium-
sized animal standing between 10" and 15" high at the shoulder.
This variety is a sturdy compromise between the Toy and the
Standard, suitable for both apartment life or the hardy
lifestyle of a family with children.

I have many friends that breed Standard Poodles: the Standard is
the largest of the three varieties, with no upper height limit.
Standards typically mature to a height of 21" to 27" at the
shoulder, and females are usually a little smaller than males.
being a larger, more substantial animal, the Standard usually
needs more room for exercise than the other two varieties.

Show/Breeding Quality Puppy Versus Pet/Companion Quality Puppy

A show quality puppy is one which, in the breeder's opinion,
should be able to become a champion. A pet quality puppy
is less likely, in the breeder's estimation, to succeed in the
show ring. However, making such a prediction at 8 1/2
weeks to 4 months of age involves a lot of breed knowledge and
some guesswork.

A "pet/companion quality" puppy is one that has a disqualifying
or major "fault" under AKC rules and/or the standard for the
breed, such as being smaller or larger than the limits for its
variety (Toy or Miniature). However, if a "pet/companion
quality? Poodle puppy meets the standard of the breed for
temperament, such a "fault" in no way affect's the puppy's
ability to be a wonderful companion or its eligibility to enter
AKC Companion Events, such as Agility or Obedience Trials.
